Antoinette Blake traveled to London to visit her daughter and met her favorite actor, Adam Knowles. His latest movie is being released and he's invited Antoinette to be his date on the red carpet. She's nervous to be seen in public with him as she fears being humiliated by the press due to her age since in her mind she's not the young, sexy woman he deserves.
Adam wants Antoinette by his side since he's never had a supportive partner. She accompanies him to a boutique to choose her gown, and when the saleswoman treats her with disrespect, Antoinette knows she was right about not being good enough to be seen on Adam's arm. She backs out of going to the premiere. Adam is hurt but Antoinette can't see past her own potential embarrassment and be the woman Adam needs.
